2. Mountains and rocks
3. English breakfast which includes: roasted tomatoes, mushrooms, baked beans, some kind of meat and slimy eggs!
4. Rain
5. Unmarked paths
6. English miles ( we are sure they are longer)
7. Stiles
8. Bullocks
9. Sheep poop
10. Pub food.

Things we will miss:
1. Warm and friendly English people
2. Beautiful scenery
3. Fellow walkers
4. Quaint villages
5. Katie's shower
6. Wild flowers
7. Flat paths
8. WiFi
9. Grasmere
10. Laughter

  2. You have your priorities right!! Agree with Mary Jo-the people and scenery will always be with you. Sheep poop and blisters will go away. Have so enjoyed your pictures and stories-oh, to be like you! Safe travels home...

  4. Congratulations on your accomplishments. We are so proud of you and know when you have time to reflect on your experience that you will only see and remember all the good times you shared. Mike is still envious of you both and hopes to maybe someday do something as exciting as you have. Bet your families can't wait to have you home with them again. Looking forward to seeing you both in Florida and hearing all your stories. Are you going to write a book?? If so..we want an autograghed copy!! Love Mike and Peggy
